Halloween Hop II Winners!

Hello everyone.  I know this is kind of late for which I apologize.  I wanted to wait until all the Steampunk Challenges were over.  It was so intense and exciting during the relay.  I meant to post this right after it was done but alas, I forgot.

Our big winner for Halloween Hop II Challenge card contest is Anne from Anne's Card Challenge.  Thanks so much for entering Anne.  Anne will receive 3 Halloween images (substitions can be made since it is already Halloween).  How awesome!  Please contact Sara and luvs2stamp71(at)att(dot)net to claim your images.

I am not done yet.  I have two random winners to announce.  As you know, we all like comments on our blogs.  So as a thank you I have picked two random winners from all the comments left on our Design Team blogs.  The winners are:

Mary from Mary's Stamping Place

and

Ruza from Ruza's Craft Corner

You each win 1 Halloween image, which again can be substituted since it is already Halloween.  On behalf of the Design Team, thank you ladies for your lovely comments.  Please contact Sara and luvs2stamp71(at)att(dot)net to claim your images.  Happy Halloween!

Sassy Saturday

It's time to feature another Sassy Crafter. This week we are featuring Sara from Sara's Sugar and Spice. She made this beautiful Halloween card with Wicked Honey. I love how she did the image all in gray. Such a cool effect. She made the star from old packing boxes and it is the perfect embellishment for her card.

Here is her gorgeous card
Congrats Sara! Please email me for you blog badge.

Do you know any Sassy Crafters who have made fabulous creations
using the images from Sassy Studio Designs?
If so, please email me at juliescraftyspot at yahoo dot com

Celebrating 500 - A Sassy Steampunk Freebie and Progressive Challenge

As many of you know, we recently reached 500 members on our Sassy Studio Designs Paper Craft Planet group! This is no small feat seeing as we just celebrated reaching 400 members in September! We love our Sassy fans, and we want to share this wonderful occasion with you again! Last month's Sassy Masquerade was incredible, but this time we've mixed things up a little, and we're going to make you work for those fabulous images of Lindsay's! Welcome to the Sassy Steampunk Progressive Relay Challenge! Here is how it works:

Today we have a fabulous freebie image for you! Her name is Steampunk Josephine! She is the 1st in a series of FOUR brand new, never before seen Sassy Studio Designs steampunk images! And she is yours, free! In order to get your crafty little hands on images 2, 3, and 4, though, well, you have to play along in our progressive challenge! If you've never participated in a progressive relay it is basically a series of challenges where you must complete one challenge to earn the freebie to play along in the next challenge and so on and so on.

Your first challenge: Create a project with Steampunk Josephine using METAL EMBELLISHMENTS. You will have two days to complete the challenge. Enter your creation using the InLinks tool below by Monday, October 17th at 8pm PDT and you will earn image #2. This image will be e-mailed to you so be sure to enter the address you want it sent to when you post your link. In order to earn image #3, you will have to participate in a second challenge. And then a third challenge to claim image #4, the final image. Besides earning the awesome freebies along the way, there will be a random winner drawn from each challenge's entrants for two SSD images of choice! AND for those who make it to the last challenge.... At the end there will be a random drawing for one lucky winner who will receive 4 images from the upcoming November release a week before they hit the Sassy Studio Designs store! But wait, there's more! That winner will also be given the opportunity to be our guest new release designer and have a creation they make using one of those November images featured on the Sassy Studio Designs blog on release day! Pretty cool, huh?

Not in the crafting mood. Well, you can still win by commenting on the challenges! We will be drawing two random winners for a SSD image of choice just for leaving us some love! And don't forget - this is all about celebrating Paper Craft Planet and our fantastic 500 so pop over there for trivia, more prizes and chats with the design team! And at the end of all this week long fun, we will have a special surprise for you on Paper Craft Planet on Saturday!

Excited yet? We are! So without further ado we present to you Steampunk Josephine and some inspiration from our fabulous design team! Remember to click on the image to get the full resolution copy before saving it!

Freebie no longer available will be in the store on 10-22-2011

          9.Gravestone
  10.Candy

11.Skull
 12.Blood
 13.Spider
     14.Cauldron
     15.Cobwebs

That sounds easy enough doesn't it.  You will have 5 days to complete your project and upload it here.  The winner will receive 3, yes 3, of the new SSD Halloween images!!!

Now hold on.  Don't leave and start crafting now.  First we would like you to do the hop.  Don't forget to leave some love on the DT blogs.  We will also have 2 random winners chosen from the DT blog comments.  Both winners will receive one new Halloween image from SSD.  Awesome right?  Here is the hop order so you can get started:
